I went to the local auction house tonight and won this beaver stock bolt action for $107 with the $25 back ground check. It's filthy but should clean up nice. I have never seen a beaver stock for sale in this area so I had to have it. I have a squirrel stock that I love so this should fit right in. It is missing the magazine so I need to find out where to get at lest one if anyone knows.

Congrats, and hope you get it in shape soon for some fun! I can't recall if I've ever seen the Beaver stock like that before or not either... neat find. Enjoy...

I bought this gun in 1977 at JC Penney at our local mall in Pittsburgh PA. I was 18 at the time, and paid $55. for it. Over the years it got tossed around thru many moves & lifestyle changes. After remarrying a man who loved guns, I got it out and after he cleaned up all the metal, I refinished the stock myself- BUT I left it the light natural color. ( the men weren't impressed) but it's always been a woman's gun, and will go to my only grand daughter someday. It was always a decent shooting 22!

Hello,
I'm jealous! I found my Marlin/glenfield model 10, 1973 birth at my LGS. Single shot, must pull the trigger back to shoot it every time. But it's the only beaver stock I've come across here in my part of the country!

I keep the patina on my finds at the LGS!
Thanks for posting the pictures of yours!
